ALL applicants are required to discuss their proposals with Dr David Pan, UKRMP Science Manager, before submission. A brief abstract should be e-mailed in advance of discussions.
The purpose of the abstract is for administrative purposes only. This will allow the office to ensure that proposals are aligned with the remit of the call. No feedback will be given other than confirmation that the proposed bid is within scope and can be submitted. Abstracts should be top level and provide the underlying objectives and identify lead and key partners. It is recognised that final proposals are likely to continue to evolve right up to the application deadline, so they need not be restricted to the precise description provided within the abstract, although the full proposal must fully reflect its core elements. Abstracts must be submitted by 4pm Tuesday 6th of November.
